About this trial

Adrenal incidentalomas (AIs) are commonly encountered in transsection imaging which purpose not for suspected adrenal disease. However, part of AIs in patients is associated with Stroke. Stroke is a diseases which could cause of disability and death worldwide. In clinical practice, detailed information about the association between stroke and AIs is not available. In this study, the investigators aimed to investigate the risk for disability and death in the large group of stroke patients with AIs.
